What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. If there's truth in that old maxim, Boeing Co. should be worried about the outcome of its war on Bombardier Inc.

The Canadian maker of trains, planes and transport systems is seeking investors and may consider selling parts of its aerospace business, Eyk Henning, Manuel Baigorri and Frederic Tomesco of Bloomberg News reported Monday, citing people familiar with the matter. It may sell its CRJ and Q400 aircraft units and consider a tie-up with Airbus SE or other aerospace companies, the people said.
